This is a question I've had for awhile on SEO.. Hopefully someone can answer it. When you use similar keywords in the meta tag, like for example: "work at home", & "work at home jobs", or: "ski vacation", "ski vacation package", is this good, bad, or doesn't it matter to the search engines?

Might some of the search engines think that your spamming the keywords work at home, or ski vacation?

I appreciate any replies.

Anyone??? Well I've got another question.. What is everyones thoughts on auto submitting thousands of pages in only 1 day to the engines like Google, Yahoo, etc?? Should one do this, or only so many pages per day?

The keyword tag is not use by googgle, so it's irrelevant for it.

Submission is useless, so autosubmitting 1000s of pages will not help.

For the engines that use meta's no as long as that form is represented in the visable text on the page. Suggestion: seperate with comma's and no spaces (eg keyword,keywords,my keyword etc)

Thanks for the reply. Submission is useless eh? Is that only for the big engines? What if my main index page is the only page that shows up in the results? Any tips for getting all my pages indexed guaranteed and are there any good tools anyone can refer me to?

1- Yes it is useless for google, I don't know for the other SE's because I don't care about them.

2- To get indexed you need a PR5 link to get a page crawled everyday. So get links to make this homepage to a PR5 and the links on it will be indexed.

Garanteed... there is never a garantee.

Is there a way to submit sub pages to Yahoo, Inktomi, MSN, and AlltheWeb?
I remember before Inktomi wants you to submit a feed of your pages if you have a large site.

Hi Dilligaf....

why commas and no spaces?
Keywords separate by commas, is possible to inhibits multiple keywords association in composite keyphrases?

( i say keywords tag is not considered...)

Sorry for my english...

For me, it's from the old Inktomi suggestions which still appear appropriate, or at least I've never seen any evidence otherwise.


I agree for Google

Ex: the source on this page
<meta name="keywords" content="seo forum,search engine optimization,seo forum,search engine optimization forum" />
